It'd be nice with the rash of folks changing their names and such to display underneath their username a list of "Formerly Known As" entries.

There is a note of it in their file.
It's none of the members business if someone wants to change their name. If they abuse it, the Mods can handle it.

It's a pain in the ass when you're looking for somebody's post from however long ago, and never got the "memo" that they changed their username. It's not an "issue" (yet), but I could see this being a severe problem in FS/FT. Do the mods really want to get PM's saying for "I'm looking for XXXXX ... have they changed their username?"

So I'd beg to differ somewhat on the "none of the members' business" part.

If they are looking for XXXX in FS/FT, we can find em easily.
